  Re: Powertools Help
 
I am not very computer savvy, so you'll need to walk me through this. In the beginning, when I'm downloading LDraw, I type in C:\ldraw027.exe -y. What does the 'y' stand for? Thanks. (19 years ago, 28-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Powertools Help
 
(...) Hi Vineet, I was one of the authors of "LEGO Power Tools". I'll do my best to help you. I assume when you say "MLCad software Powertools" program, you really mean the Powertools install program that came with your "Powertools" book. It is (...) (19 years ago, 27-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Powertools Help
 
I need help. I have the MLCad software Powertools program set up on my Desktop, but shen I put the program on my laptop, it just gives a small dialogue box saying basically that the file can't be found. Is the Powertools program not set for a (...) (19 years ago, 27-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)

  Teaser: Automatic sticker creation
 
Dear all, I've been working hard lately on a program to convert bitmapped images (in BMP or RGB) format into vectorised ldraw images. It seems to be working OK now (with many caveats) and I hope to have a user-ready version ready soon, along with a (...) (19 years ago, 27-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.trains, FTX)

  non-CA parts [was: Re: 3 noble quests for ldraw part creators]

  Re: LDiff available to try
